In the Pisces Laboratory, Aquarium plants are cultivated using tissue-culture techniques in small pots of nutrient-rich, sterile, agar jelly. These little pots pack a lot of goodness in a small space and you will find multiple plants in each container.
Before planting in your aquarium, gently wash off the jelly and carefully split the plants into a few pieces if desired.
